There are over 40,000 women working in South Africa's mining sector. Many of them are in underground occupations in platinum and gold mines. Some would argue that their jobs are dangerous, but as you're about to see in this report from Andrew Thompson, the bottomline for them, is that it puts food on the tables.

Women are the cornerstone of African economic development. Some estimate they provide around 70 percent of agricultural labour, and produce around 90 percent of the continent's food. However, women are predominantly employed in the informal sector, or they occupy low-skill jobs. Women may produce most of the food in Africa, but when it comes to employment in the non-agricultural sector they score lowest in the world at only 8-point-5 percent. The reason for that is insufficient access to key resources such as education and health. Inequalities based on social norms are also a factor.

WomenPower Africa (WPA) was founded on March 9th 2015. Its purpose is to work actively on increasing the welfare of African women by providing them with tangible tools to identify business opportunities in their microenvironment and the ability to carry it forward.
Women Power Africa is based on a similar project, run successfully at Bifröst University, Iceland for the past decade, and under the auspices of which nearly a thousand Icelandic women in rural areas have received tangible education for their own empowerment.
The project concept has now been started in Tanzania, where it has been adjusted to the conditions of the underpriviledged women in Bashay village in North Tanzania. The first phase (in 2015) was successfully implemented by Women Power Africa and preparation for the next phase, in 2016, has already begun.

African countries have enormous potential to increase trade with each other and to the global market -- exploiting this potential will diversify economies, create jobs and reduce poverty. Women play a key role in trade in Africa, as farmers and producers of tradable goods, as cross-border traders and as managers and owners of firms that trade. They will be at the heart of Africa's success in expanding trade.
This documentary tells of the experiences of women that took advantage of trade opportunities and, despite gender-related challenges and barriers, successfully seized foreign markets. Their stories show that eliminating gender-specific barriers will boost trade in Africa. A new World Bank report: "Women and Trade in Africa: Realizing the Potential" explores this issue in detail. These are the stories behind the research.

Every year sees a migration of thousands of poor African and Asian women to the oil rich countries of the Middle East. Young women seeking a brighter future as domestic employees, for to be a maid in Dubai is the only prospect a young Ethiopian has of gainful employment.
100Dollars a month is the sought after average wage, no matter that you are on call 24 hours a day for your employer. However, on arrival in the fairytale land of Dubai these dreams will often turn into a nightmare of bare survival. These girls are becoming the slaves of the 21st century and there is no escape. Abused in a Country where they have no voice and no alternatives, many see suicide as the only way out. A few dare to flee, wandering the streets of Dubai or finding temporary refuge in one of the few, overfilled emergency shelters in the city.

Woman

A woman is a femalehuman. The term woman is usually reserved for an adult, with the term girl being the usual term for a female child or adolescent. The term woman is also sometimes used to identify a female human, regardless of age, as in phrases such as "women's rights". "Woman" may also refer to a person's gender identity. Women with typical genetic development are usually capable of giving birth from puberty until menopause. In the context of gender identity, transgender people who are biologically determined to be male and identify as women cannot give birth. Some intersex people who identify as women cannot give birth due to either sterility or inheriting one or more Y chromosomes. In extremely rare cases, people who have Swyer syndrome can give birth with medical assistance. Throughout history women have assumed or been assigned various social roles.

Etymology

The spelling of woman in English has progressed over the past millennium from wīfmann to wīmmann to wumman, and finally, the modern spelling woman. In Old English, wīfmann meant "female human", whereas wēr meant "male human". Mann or monn had a gender-neutral meaning of "human", corresponding to Modern English "person" or "someone"; however, subsequent to the Norman Conquest, man began to be used more in reference to "male human", and by the late 13th century had begun to eclipse usage of the older term wēr. The medial labial consonants f and m in wīfmann coalesced into the modern form "woman", while the initial element, which meant "female", underwent semantic narrowing to the sense of a married woman ("wife"). It is a popular misconception that the term "woman" is etymologically connected with "womb", which is from a separate Old English word, wambe meaning "stomach" (of male or female; modern German retains the colloquial term "Wampe" from Middle High German for "potbelly"). Nevertheless, such a false derivation of "woman" has appeared in print.

Small business

Small businesses are normally privately owned corporations, partnerships, or sole proprietorships. What businesses are defined as "small" in terms of government support and tax policy varies depending on the country and industry. Small businesses range from 15 employees under the AustralianFair Work Act 2009, 50 employees according to the definition used by the European Union, and fewer than 500 employees to qualify for many U.S. Small Business Administration programs. Small businesses can also be classified according to other methods such as sales, assets, or net profits.

Characteristics

Researchers and analysts of small or owner-managed businesses generally behave as if nominal organizational forms (e.g., partnership, sole-trader or corporation) and the consequent legal and accounting boundaries of owner-managed firms are consistently meaningful. However, owner-managers often do not delineate their behaviour to accord with the implied separation between their personal and business interests. Lenders also often contract around organizational (corporate) boundaries by seeking personal guarantees or accepting privately held assets as collateral. Because of this behaviour, researchers and analysts should reject the relevance of the organizational types and implied boundaries in many contexts relating to owner-managed firms. These include analyses that use traditional accounting disclosures, and studies that view the firm as defined by some formal organizational structure.

History

The history of West Africa can be divided into five major periods: first, its prehistory, in which the first human settlers arrived, developed agriculture, and made contact with peoples to the north; the second, the Iron Age empires that consolidated both intra-African, and extra-African trade, and developed centralized states; third, Major polities flourished, which would undergo an extensive history of contact with non-Africans; fourth, the colonial period, in which Great Britain and France controlled nearly the whole of the region; fifth, the post-independence era, in which the current nations were formed.

Africa: Putting Women First

Sub-Saharan Africa alone stands to gain up to $US95 billion a year by closing the gender gap. Women’s access to jobs and livelihoods, health, legal and political representation and education is vital for Africa’s journey to economic prosperity and the sustainable development goals.

Women are the cornerstone of African economic development. Some estimate they provide around 70 percent of agricultural labour, and produce around 90 percent of the continent's food. However, women are predominantly employed in the informal sector, or they occupy low-skill jobs. Women may produce most of the food in Africa, but when it comes to employment in the non-agricultural sector they score lowest in the world at only 8-point-5 percent. The reason for that is insufficient access to key resources such as education and health. Inequalities based on social norms are also a factor.

WomenPower Africa (WPA) was founded on March 9th 2015. Its purpose is to work actively on increasing the welfare of African women by providing them with tangible tools to identify business opportunities in their microenvironment and the ability to carry it forward.
Women Power Africa is based on a similar project, run successfully at Bifröst University, Iceland for the past decade, and under the auspices of which nearly a thousand Icelandic women in rural areas have received tangible education for their own empowerment.
The project concept has now been started in Tanzania, where it has been adjusted to the conditions of the underpriviledged women in Bashay village in North Tanzania. The first phase (in 2015) was successfully implemented by Women Power Africa and preparation for the next phase, in 2016, has already begun.

African countries have enormous potential to increase trade with each other and to the global market -- exploiting this potential will diversify economies, create jobs and reduce poverty. Women play a key role in trade in Africa, as farmers and producers of tradable goods, as cross-border traders and as managers and owners of firms that trade. They will be at the heart of Africa's success in expanding trade.
This documentary tells of the experiences of women that took advantage of trade opportunities and, despite gender-related challenges and barriers, successfully seized foreign markets. Their stories show that eliminating gender-specific barriers will boost trade in Africa. A new World Bank report: "Women and Trade in Africa: Realizing the Potential" explores this issue in detail. These are the stories behind the research.

http://www.etete.org
Every year sees a migration of thousands of poor African and Asian women to the oil rich countries of the Middle East. Young women seeking a brighter future as domestic employees, for to be a maid in Dubai is the only prospect a young Ethiopian has of gainful employment.
100Dollars a month is the sought after average wage, no matter that you are on call 24 hours a day for your employer. However, on arrival in the fairytale land of Dubai these dreams will often turn into a nightmare of bare survival. These girls are becoming the slaves of the 21st century and there is no escape. Abused in a Country where they have no voice and no alternatives, many see suicide as the only way out. A few dare to flee, wandering the streets of Dubai or finding temporary refuge in one of the few, overfilled emergency shelters in the city.

Africa: Putting Women First

Sub-Saharan Africa alone stands to gain up to $US95 billion a year by closing the gender gap. Women’s access to jobs and livelihoods, health, legal and political representation and education is vital for Africa’s journey to economic prosperity and the sustainable development goals.
UNDPAdministratorHelen Clark discusses the2016 Africa Human Development Report on the reasons for putting women at the heart of development in the continent of Africa.

Some would argue that their jobs are dangerous, but as you're about to see in this report from Andrew Thompson, the bottomline for them, is that it puts food on the tables.

Women are the cornerstone of African economic development. Some estimate they provide around 70 percent of agricultural labour, and produce around 90 percent of the continent's food. However, women are predominantly employed in the informal sector, or they occupy low-skill jobs. Women may produce most of the food in Africa, but when it comes to employment in the non-agricultural sector they score lowest in the world at only 8-point-5 percent. The reason for that is insufficient access to key resources such as education and health. Inequalities based on social norms are also a factor.

WomenPower Africa (WPA) was founded on March 9th 2015. Its purpose is to work actively on increasing the welfare of African women by providing them with tangible tools to identify business opportunities in their microenvironment and the ability to carry it forward.
Women Power Africa is based on a similar project, run successfully at Bifröst University, Iceland for the past decade, and under the auspices of which nearly a thousand Icelandic women in rural areas have received tangible education for their own empowerment.
The project concept has now been started in Tanzania, where it has been adjusted to the conditions of the underpriviledged women in Bashay village in North Tanzania. The first phase (in 2015) was successfully implemented by Women Power Africa and preparation for the next phase, in 2016, has already begun.

Mind the Gap: Gender Equality and Trade in Africa

African countries have enormous potential to increase trade with each other and to the global market -- exploiting this potential will diversify economies, create jobs and reduce poverty. Women play a key role in trade in Africa, as farmers and producers of tradable goods, as cross-border traders and as managers and owners of firms that trade. They will be at the heart of Africa's success in expanding trade.
This documentary tells of the experiences of women that took advantage of trade opportunities and, despite gender-related challenges and barriers, successfully seized foreign markets. Their stories show that eliminating gender-specific barriers will boost trade in Africa. A new World Bank report: "Women and Trade in Africa: Realizing the Potential" explores this issue in detail. These are the stories behind the research.

'The privilege of serving the United States Army in uniform is no longer limited to men. To prepare the women who will serve with the Regular Army, the Women's Army Corps recently opened a new training center at Fort McClellan, Alabama. THE BIGPICTURE camera goes to Fort McClellan to film and record this first good look at the new "college" for WAC officers and enlisted women. Since 1942 when the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps was created, women training for service with the U.S. Army have had a number of temporary homes, ranging from Florida to Massachusetts, from Iowa to Virginia. Today, the permanent WAC Center is a cluster of 22 cream-colored buildings in a natural setting at Alabama's Fort McClellan. Today, women are playing increasingly important role in the nation's defense. Thanks to the modern WAC Training Center, graduates are better trained and better qualified for more responsible jobs than ever before.'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women's_Army_Corps
The Women's Army Corps (WAC) was the women's branch of the United States Army. It was created as an auxiliary unit, the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC) on 15 May 1942 by Public Law 554, and converted to full status as the WAC in 1943. Its first director was Oveta Culp Hobby, a prominent society woman in Texas.
The WAAC organization was designed by numerous Army bureaus coordinated by Lt. Col.Gilman C. Mudgett, the first WAAC Pre-Planner. However, nearly all of his plans were discarded or greatly modified before going into operation because he expected a corps of only 11,000 women.
The WAAC was modeled after comparable British units, especially the ATS, which caught the attention of Chief of StaffGeorge C. Marshall. In 1942, the first contingent of 800 members of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps began basic training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa. The women were fitted for uniforms, interviewed, assigned to companies and barracks and inoculated against disease during the first day.
A physical training manual was published by the War Department in July 1943, aimed at bringing the women recruits to top physical standards. One section of the manual satirized a notional recruit named "JosephineJerk" who does not participate wholeheartedly: "Josephine Jerk is a limp number in every outfit who dives into her daily dozen with the crisp vitality of a damp mop." The manual begins by naming the responsibility of the women: "Your Job: To Replace Men. Be Ready To Take Over."
About 150,000 American women served in the WAAC and WAC during World War II. They were the first women other than nurses to serve with the Army. While conservative opinion in the leadership of the Army and public opinion generally was initially opposed to women serving in uniform, the shortage of men necessitated a new policy. While most women served stateside, some went to various places around the World, including Europe, North Africa and New Guinea. For example, WACs landed on Normandy Beach just a few weeks after the initial invasion.
Many men ferociously opposed allowing women in uniform, warning their sisters and friends they would be seen as lesbians or prostitutes. They feared that if women became soldiers they would no longer serve in a masculine preserve and their masculinity would be devalued. Others feared being sent into combat units if women took over the safe jobs.
General Douglas MacArthur called the WACs "my best soldiers", adding that they worked harder, complained less, and were better disciplined than men... Those 150,000 women that did serve released the equivalent of 7 divisions of men for combat...
During the same time period, other branches of the U.S. military had similar women's units, including the Navy WAVES, the SPARS of the Coast Guard and the (civil) Women Airforce Service Pilots. The British Armed Forces also had similar units, including the Women's Auxiliary Air Force.
The WAC as a branch was disbanded in 1978. Women serving as WACs at that time converted their branches to whatever Military Occupational Specialty they were working in. Since then, women in the U.S. Army have served in the same units as men...

WomenPower Africa (WPA) was founded on March 9th 2015. Its purpose is to work actively on increasing the welfare of African women by providing them with tangible tools to identify business opportunities in their microenvironment and the ability to carry it forward.
Women Power Africa is based on a similar project, run successfully at Bifröst University, Iceland for the past decade, and under the auspices of which nearly a thousand Icelandic women in rural areas have received tangible education for their own empowerment.
The project concept has now been started in Tanzania, where it has been adjusted to the conditions of the underpriviledged women in Bashay village in North Tanzania. The first phase (in 2015) was successfully implemented by Women Power Africa and preparation for the next phase, in 2016, has already begun.

This panel discussion looks at women’s role in agriculture across the Pacific region. Panellists include ChristieChang, Agricultural Economist, University of New England; Randy Stringer, Professor of Agriculture and FoodPolicy, University of Adelaide and; Amy Luinstra, SeniorGenderSpecialist at the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
In many developing nations, the significant contribution women make in agriculture is consistently undervalued, and opportunities for growth are stifled. Across regions, despite the fact that they are just as efficient as men and account for almost half of the global agricultural workforce, females have less access to productive resources and opportunities than men and are often paid significantly less, if at all.
In thePacific, even though women hold an essential role in the agricultural sector, they are often excluded from local authority decision-making in the management of markets, and don’t have control over the land they work on, or other assets. The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that equalising access to productive resources could increase agricultural output by 2.5 to 4 percent; representing a missed opportunity for both men and women.
Throughout the discussion, panellists look at the current situation and share ideas on best practice, how to give women a voice and how to ensure that the challenges and opportunities presented by the growth of modern supply-chains are met and fully realized. The recently released IFC report – The Fruit of Her Labour which analyses the role of women in agriculture in Papua New Guinea – is also discussed.

Africa: Putting Women First

Sub-Saharan Africa alone stands to gain up to $US95 billion a year by closing the gender gap. Women’s access to jobs and livelihoods, health, legal and political representation and education is vital for Africa’s journey to economic prosperity and the sustainable development goals.
UNDPAdministratorHelen Clark discusses the2016 Africa Human Development Report on the reasons for putting women at the heart of development in the continent of Africa.

There are over 40,000 women working in South Africa's mining sector. Many of them are in underground occupations in platinum and gold mines. Some would argue that their jobs are dangerous, but as you're about to see in this report from Andrew Thompson, the bottomline for them, is that it puts food on the tables.

Women are the cornerstone of Africa's economic development

Women are the cornerstone of African economic development. Some estimate they provide around 70 percent of agricultural labour, and produce around 90 percent of the continent's food. However, women are predominantly employed in the informal sector, or they occupy low-skill jobs. Women may produce most of the food in Africa, but when it comes to employment in the non-agricultural sector they score lowest in the world at only 8-point-5 percent. The reason for that is insufficient access to key resources such as education and health. Inequalities based on social norms are also a factor.

Women Power Africa - 2015 full documentary

WomenPower Africa (WPA) was founded on March 9th 2015. Its purpose is to work actively on increasing the welfare of African women by providing them with tangible tools to identify business opportunities in their microenvironment and the ability to carry it forward.
Women Power Africa is based on a similar project, run successfully at Bifröst University, Iceland for the past decade, and under the auspices of which nearly a thousand Icelandic women in rural areas have received tangible education for their own empowerment.
The project concept has now been started in Tanzania, where it has been adjusted to the conditions of the underpriviledged women in Bashay village in North Tanzania. The first phase (in 2015) was successfully implemented by Women Power Africa and preparation for the next phase, in 2016, has already begun.

Mind the Gap: Gender Equality and Trade in Africa

African countries have enormous potential to increase trade with each other and to the global market -- exploiting this potential will diversify economies, create jobs and reduce poverty. Women play a key role in trade in Africa, as farmers and producers of tradable goods, as cross-border traders and as managers and owners of firms that trade. They will be at the heart of Africa's success in expanding trade.
This documentary tells of the experiences of women that took advantage of trade opportunities and, despite gender-related challenges and barriers, successfully seized foreign markets. Their stories show that eliminating gender-specific barriers will boost trade in Africa. A new World Bank report: "Women and Trade in Africa: Realizing the Potential" explores this issue in detail. These are the stories behind the research.

Nightmare in Dreamland - housemaides in Dubai

http://www.etete.org
Every year sees a migration of thousands of poor African and Asian women to the oil rich countries of the Middle East. Young women seeking a brighter future as domestic employees, for to be a maid in Dubai is the only prospect a young Ethiopian has of gainful employment.
100Dollars a month is the sought after average wage, no matter that you are on call 24 hours a day for your employer. However, on arrival in the fairytale land of Dubai these dreams will often turn into a nightmare of bare survival. These girls are becoming the slaves of the 21st century and there is no escape. Abused in a Country where they have no voice and no alternatives, many see suicide as the only way out. A few dare to flee, wandering the streets of Dubai or finding temporary refuge in one of the few, overfilled emergency shelters in the city.

'The privilege of serving the United States Army in uniform is no longer limited to men. To prepare the women who will serve with the Regular Army, the Women's Army Corps recently opened a new training center at Fort McClellan, Alabama. THE BIGPICTURE camera goes to Fort McClellan to film and record this first good look at the new "college" for WAC officers and enlisted women. Since 1942 when the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps was created, women training for service with the U.S. Army have had a number of temporary homes, ranging from Florida to Massachusetts, from Iowa to Virginia. Today, the permanent WAC Center is a cluster of 22 cream-colored buildings in a natural setting at Alabama's Fort McClellan. Today, women are playing increasingly important role in the nation's defense. Thanks to the modern WAC Training Center, graduates are better trained and better qualified for more responsible jobs than ever before.'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women's_Army_Corps
The Women's Army Corps (WAC) was the women's branch of the United States Army. It was created as an auxiliary unit, the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC) on 15 May 1942 by Public Law 554, and converted to full status as the WAC in 1943. Its first director was Oveta Culp Hobby, a prominent society woman in Texas.
The WAAC organization was designed by numerous Army bureaus coordinated by Lt. Col.Gilman C. Mudgett, the first WAAC Pre-Planner. However, nearly all of his plans were discarded or greatly modified before going into operation because he expected a corps of only 11,000 women.
The WAAC was modeled after comparable British units, especially the ATS, which caught the attention of Chief of StaffGeorge C. Marshall. In 1942, the first contingent of 800 members of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps began basic training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa. The women were fitted for uniforms, interviewed, assigned to companies and barracks and inoculated against disease during the first day.
A physical training manual was published by the War Department in July 1943, aimed at bringing the women recruits to top physical standards. One section of the manual satirized a notional recruit named "JosephineJerk" who does not participate wholeheartedly: "Josephine Jerk is a limp number in every outfit who dives into her daily dozen with the crisp vitality of a damp mop." The manual begins by naming the responsibility of the women: "Your Job: To Replace Men. Be Ready To Take Over."
About 150,000 American women served in the WAAC and WAC during World War II. They were the first women other than nurses to serve with the Army. While conservative opinion in the leadership of the Army and public opinion generally was initially opposed to women serving in uniform, the shortage of men necessitated a new policy. While most women served stateside, some went to various places around the World, including Europe, North Africa and New Guinea. For example, WACs landed on Normandy Beach just a few weeks after the initial invasion.
Many men ferociously opposed allowing women in uniform, warning their sisters and friends they would be seen as lesbians or prostitutes. They feared that if women became soldiers they would no longer serve in a masculine preserve and their masculinity would be devalued. Others feared being sent into combat units if women took over the safe jobs.
General Douglas MacArthur called the WACs "my best soldiers", adding that they worked harder, complained less, and were better disciplined than men... Those 150,000 women that did serve released the equivalent of 7 divisions of men for combat...
During the same time period, other branches of the U.S. military had similar women's units, including the Navy WAVES, the SPARS of the Coast Guard and the (civil) Women Airforce Service Pilots. The British Armed Forces also had similar units, including the Women's Auxiliary Air Force.
The WAC as a branch was disbanded in 1978. Women serving as WACs at that time converted their branches to whatever Military Occupational Specialty they were working in. Since then, women in the U.S. Army have served in the same units as men...

Women in Agriculture

This panel discussion looks at women’s role in agriculture across the Pacific region. Panellists include ChristieChang, Agricultural Economist, University of New England; Randy Stringer, Professor of Agriculture and FoodPolicy, University of Adelaide and; Amy Luinstra, SeniorGenderSpecialist at the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
In many developing nations, the significant contribution women make in agriculture is consistently undervalued, and opportunities for growth are stifled. Across regions, despite the fact that they are just as efficient as men and account for almost half of the global agricultural workforce, females have less access to productive resources and opportunities than men and are often paid significantly less, if at all.
In thePacific, even though women hold an essential role in the agricultural sector, they are often excluded from local authority decision-making in the management of markets, and don’t have control over the land they work on, or other assets. The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that equalising access to productive resources could increase agricultural output by 2.5 to 4 percent; representing a missed opportunity for both men and women.
Throughout the discussion, panellists look at the current situation and share ideas on best practice, how to give women a voice and how to ensure that the challenges and opportunities presented by the growth of modern supply-chains are met and fully realized. The recently released IFC report – The Fruit of Her Labour which analyses the role of women in agriculture in Papua New Guinea – is also discussed.
